Protection by Massive Attack
Sep 25 2024

This is really not the sort of music I can listen to and stay awake. It makes me instantly sleepy like I've been conditioned or something.

Sep 26 2024

The vocals are uncomfortable, but not in a good way. I'm finding the instrumentals to be uninteresting and the lyrics aren't saving it.

Sep 27 2024

I have a lot of fond memories of this album. My dad used to put it on the record player and he'd play along on his guitar while letting us kids stay up late to listen to music. It's a core bright spot in my childhood memories that probably helped give me an enduring love of just sitting and listening to an album all the way through. Listening to it now brings me back to lying on the carpet by the speakers feeing the bass in my bones. It's not just a thing to hear, but an experience.

I fell asleep. It was great nap music.

Oar by Alexander 'Skip' Spence
Oct 03 2024

I'd never heard anything by this artist before. It's definitely interesting, but not very much to my taste.

Get Behind Me Satan by The White Stripes
Oct 04 2024

The album has a really fun energy to it, and I'm disappointed in myself for not having listened to the whole thing when it came out.

Thriller by Michael Jackson
Oct 07 2024

My mom listened to this one when she was vacuuming the house back when I was very small. This is the first time I've heard it without a lot of background noise. It's very danceable and catchy. I see why it's on the list. But I think I like it better with the vacuum.

Meat Puppets II by Meat Puppets
Oct 08 2024

I've never even heard of Meat Puppets before. And I find myself not terribly surprised about that while listening. There are some good musical moments with the guitar, but it has some distortion that doesn't agree with me.

Different Class by Pulp
Oct 10 2024

It was definitely interesting. My dad probably loved this.

Fleet Foxes by Fleet Foxes
Oct 11 2024

It reminds me very much of The Last Unicorn for some reason. I'm enjoying it, as it's very restful.

The Slider by T. Rex
Oct 15 2024

There's a lot of repetitive sections that are really grating. This isn't for me.

Queen II by Queen
Oct 21 2024

It was super fun!

Porcupine by Echo And The Bunnymen
Oct 24 2024
Rock Bottom by Robert Wyatt
Oct 29 2024

Actively unpleasant to listen to.

Kid A by Radiohead
Oct 30 2024
Murmur by R.E.M.
Oct 31 2024

It's not the album from them that I'm most familiar with, but it's a very recognizable sound.

Boston by Boston
Nov 12 2024

Every track is perfection.

Mask by Bauhaus
Nov 19 2024
